"Intestinal turmoil" put Manny Ramirez on the bench Sunday, in a game where one amazing Curtis Granderson catch made the difference, and, yes, Manny's presence in the lineup would have been appreciated. But "turmoil" is nothing to tangle with. Other names for what Manny's going through:
intestinal insurgency
potato-bacon bombing
a peacekeeping force to the gut
(soft) shell(ed crab) shock
post-turkey stress disorder
gambling debts (the bet: "bet you can't eat just one!")
over-absersization
colonic civil war
hot dog hostilities
friendly's fire
upset stomach
the all-star break.
